Australian prime minister and deputy prime minister have met the newly appointed U.S. Ambassador Caroline Kennedy, with climate change and Indigenous issues being discussed.
Kennedy, 64, is the daughter of former U.S. President John F. Kennedy, and has served as U.S. Ambassador to Japan between 2013 and 2017 under former President Barack Obama. She was long considered a candidate for the high-profile role in Australia after showing support for Joe Biden’s bid for the presidency.
